The Hypostat Data Hub encompasses the EMF statistics for the 27 Member States of the European Union, plus an additional 12 jurisdictions beyond the EU’s borders. This data series covers all relevant indicators on housing and mortgage markets, and macroeconomic patterns to enable financial institutions, private stakeholders and researchers to identify and analyse key changes in these markets at both individual and condensed levels.

Housing lays the foundation for freedom, dignity and opportunity, paving a solid path towards lasting peace and shared prosperity. Housing policies for their part represent a major social lift, with the potential to support each and every citizen in realising their future expectations. Hypostat 2025 brings together the efforts of over 30 contributors, commenting on an annual data series of 30 indicators, covering the 27 Member States of the European Union plus an additional 12 jurisdictions beyond the EU’s borders. Besides the country chapters of the EU27 Member States, which make up the bulk of the publication, Hypostat includes specific articles on the UK, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland. These chapters offer the most comprehensive and accurate source of data available on the markets covered and outline developments observed over the past year.The publication of this year’s Hypostat comes at a critical geopolitical moment and at the dawn of a new political agenda for the European Institutions focused on ensuring access to affordable housing for all. At this important juncture, we have taken the opportunity of the 2025 edition to gather valuable insights from renowned housing market and housing finance experts from around the globe in four standalone articles focused on the housing affordability crisis.The housing and mortgage sectors in Europe are not just significant in terms of economic impact, but they also play a vital strategic role in the broader goals of market integration, transition towards a greener future, and financial inclusion. In Europe, housing is often seen as the largest component of wealth and residential investment is a large component of overall investment. While the housing and mortgage markets were stabilising in 2024, the EU is still facing long-term challenges related to affordability, housing supply, and market equity. House prices and mortgage interest rates are increasing across most countries, whereas housing supply remains limited and the industry is still facing high construction costs.
